For The Travelers; NaPoWriMo

Dear April,

You have kept me so busy with a whore of a computer virus all day long and playing the Easter Bunny at a mall for a bunch of spoiled children and their rich Oxygen suckers of parents that I almost forgot about the poetry and beauty in you. Beauty in the form of me being pooped on twice today, therefore giving me a great story to tell my friends when I am drunk off of Whiskey this weekend. Oh, and yes your poetic ways...It is NaPoWriMo, National Poetry Writing Month (for those who are too high to figure out)!

This is a month where you should take the time to wake up, start drinking, and write one poem per day! I think it is also a time for male poets to not shave and prepare for Mustache May while the female poets should psychologically prepare for the porn star like invasion of the male poets during Mustache May!

Seriously, I am not planning on writing one poem per day. I am having extreme writers block ever since I graduated in December. I found comfort in photography, but I want to start writing again. I plan on using this month to read as much poetry as I can, and start to research my next poetry writing project. Hopefully April, you can knock me out of this rut.

Sincerely,
A Traveler
